Ingredients
- 1 pound skinless boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Jamaican jerk seasoning
- 1 cup fresh sugar snap peas or snow pea pods, strings and tips removed
- 1 cup fresh or canned pineapple cubes
- 1 medium red sweet pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- Nonstick cooking spray

Instructions
-
Step1Sprinkle chicken with about half of the jerk seasoning; toss gently to coat. Cut any large pea pods in half crosswise.

Step2Alternately thread chicken, pea pods, pineapple cubes, and sweet pepper pieces onto 4 long or 8 short metal skewers, * leaving 1/4-inch spaces between pieces. Spray kabobs with nonstick cooking spray.
